Consider the following leadership practices that assist in Encouraging the Heart.
“Praising people for a job well done.
Making a point to let people know about my confidence in their abilities.
Making sure people are creatively recognized for their contributions to the success of our projects.
Publicly recognizing people who exemplify commitment to shared values.
Telling stories of encouragement about good works of others.
Being personally involved in recognizing people and celebrating accomplishments.” (Kouzes and Posner, 2017)
After considering these leadership actions, write a reflective essay addressing these questions:
Have you had a boss that acted in this manner?  If yes, discuss how you responded to him/her. If no, discuss how you think you would have responded
Please discuss whether or not these leadership actions are part of your leadership approach…and if not, should they be…why or why not?
